JQuery datepicker

Coud someone help me with this? I am getting these question marks in the graphic and i'm not sure why? I have seen these symbols before and i am sure it had something to do with charset. I am using:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>

Here is my JQuery code

    <script type="text/javascript">
        $(function() {
            var date = $('#date').datepicker({
                minDate: 0,
                dateFormat: "dd/mm/yy",
                beforeShowDay: function(date){
                    if (date.getDay() == 0){
                        return [false, ''];
                    } else {
                         return [true, ''];
                    }
                }
             }
            );
        });
</script>

Are you using a localization language for datepicker? If so: just head to this question, and look my answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/22406691/1723944

Problems like this are usually encoding issues as you've said, and they can often be difficult to figure out. Often it is because the editor you're using saves the file in one encoding, even though your meta tag specifies a different encoding. Try changing the charset to ISO-8859-1 and see if that solves the problem.

The code you've provided isn't the problem. I just tested your provided code in Opera10/FF3/IE8 and I do not get the ? characters.

  • Are you specifying a specific font in your css?
  • Does this happen in all browsers on your machine?
  • Tested on another machine?
